I wanted to ratchet up the stakes, so I decided to kill off a fairly major character. One of my developmental editors said this:
This comes a little over a third of the way through the book. Other characters who are named but not seen "on screen" will be killed off later.
Thoughts?
Thanks.

Killing your characters always needs proper timing. It’s too early or too late to kill Amber Starr. We have no strong emotional attachment to this character. Her death doesn’t cause strong emotions and it doesn’t impress the readers. Just put her in coma, it’s the best what could be done.
